The Alex Smith to #Chiefs trade is now official. 49ers get 2nd round pick plus conditional 2014 pick. Chiefs get starting QB



The San Francisco 49ers have agreed to a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs. The 49ers will acquire an undisclosed 2013 draft choice, and a conditional pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, in return for sending QB Alex Smith to the Chiefs. Smith must pass a physical in Kansas City for the trade to be executed.

“We would like to thank Alex for his contributions to the 49ers organization over the past eight years,” said 49ers General Manager Trent Baalke. “He is a true professional who represented the 49ers with class on and off the field.”

Originally the first overall draft pick in the 2005 NFL Draft by San Francisco, Smith spent eight seasons in the red and gold. During his tenure with the 49ers, he started 75 of the 80 games in which he played, completing 1,290 of 2,177 pass attempts (59.3%) for 14,280 yards and 81 TDs.

In 2012, Smith was 6-2-1 as a starter, completing 153 of 218 pass attempts (70.2%) for 1,737 yards with 13 TDs and 5 INTs, and a QB rating of 104.1. In 2011, Smith led the 49ers to their first NFC West title and postseason berth since 2002. He threw for a career-high 3,144 yards on 273 of 445 pass attempts with 17 TDs, 5 INTs and a 90.7 QB rating.

Born in Seattle, WA, Smith attended Helix High School in LaMesa, CA. At the University of Utah, Smith boasted a 21-1 record as a starter and became the first player in school history to be named a finalist for the Heisman Trophy.

It's not so bad, tbqh

The less the Niners asked Alex to do the better he looked. He had more yards per game n TDs per game under Sing/ Jimmy Raye tham Harbaugh.

He can't sit back and let his defence hold the other team to under 20 pnts here. His 175-200 yards and 1 & half TDs a game avg wont win many games.

he was throwing 225 yards per game and was on pace to throw for 26 tds...i don't think he's a game manager. he just makes goo ddecisiions. He can throw deep just watch highlight tape.

[ChiliConCarnage]

so 27 consecutive years without a quarterback the Chiefs drafted winning a game for them. Not a Super Bowl or playoff game. Just any game

and in what can only be an incredible coincidence we'll probably make it 20 and 21 consecutive years of not winning a playoff game

bringing in Alex Smith: Ok

Using a mid-late first round pick in trade value for Alex Smith as the QB of the future: **** Dorsey

Hopefully in some currently unimaginable way it ends up working out.

people are going to be surprised by this guy he has a chip on his shoulder and I have no doubt he wants to prove dumping him was a big mistake.

Are you kidding? He just had a concussion last year that kept him out several games and then that gave the opportunity to Kaepernic. So don't say he isn't prone to injury. It wont take much if he gets hit to get another or more concussions to put him on the sidelines.

49ers get 2nd round pick plus conditional 2014 pick. Chiefs get starting QB.

Chiefs fans get continuation of Carl Peterson philosophy. Woohoo! Tailgates!

In 2006 Alex Smith became one of the only QB's in the History of the NFL to start and play every single snap of the season. No other 49er in history has done it and only a few in the NFL, Brodie, Montana, Young, Garcia ect... As for him being injury prone you can blame his shoulder on Mike Nolan, he accused Alex of not really being hurt. So he threw him in there and he was hurt worse on National TV. He really is a durable guy. Concussions, happen. He was cleared the next week, but Kap had taken off and Harbaugh rode it out. so they kept smith out. It wasnt that he couldnt play its that the staff would let him. It was a national story. Everyone knew smith was healthy.

Im sure you dont watch the Niners near as much as the Chiefs and Vice-Versa. For all the things you read about his play, he has done some great things as well. I think your gonna be surprised. He really is one tough SOB. He gets up time after time. I really rooting for the Cheifs fan base to change their mind about Alex. He has got the goods, just an entire career spent with no continuity. The NINER organization was just in shambles when he was drafted.

Well, where's the outrage now, homer?

Unless Alex Reid Dorsey prove it in the playoffs that this is a good deal I'm not going to like it. They have to prove it. I have no reason to like this trade so it's up to them to change my mind on game days. I don't have any expectations that Alex Smiff was worth the trade. Let them prove it. That's what we get yet again another retread and we are told to like him. FN BS.
